Inner Priesthood of Unleavened Bread

2 Kings 23:9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 23 in context

Scripture Focus

9Nevertheless the priests of the high places came not up to the altar of the LORD in Jerusalem, but they did eat of the unleavened bread among their brethren.
2 Kings 23:9

Biblical Context

Priests of the high places did not ascend to the LORD's altar in Jerusalem. They ate unleavened bread among their brethren, signaling a separation from the central worship.

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville perspective, the scene is not about priests and geography but about your inner state. The high places symbolize private corners of consciousness kept separate from the central altar of I AM awareness. The fact that they do not ascend to the altar but eat unleavened bread with brethren reveals a mind content to fellowship within a closed circle rather than harmonize with the whole of divine worship. Unleavened bread stands for unfermented, pure thought—free of the leaven of ego and habit. The outer ritual is secondary to the inner alignment; true worship occurs wherever you hold the one awareness at the center. The lesson invites you to revise your inner arrangement: invite your consciousness to the I AM as the altar, and see every shared bread moment as communion with the divine within. When you live from that inner communion, the outer forms fall into place as expressions, not prerequisites.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly, close your eyes, and imagine the inner altar within you; affirm 'I AM' as that altar and picture sharing unleavened bread with your inner brethren until you sense unity with the divine.
